Measurement of the Z0 Mass and Width with the OPAL Detector at LEP

The OPAL collaboration Akrawy, M.Z. ; Alexander, G. ; Allison, J. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 231 (1989) 530-538, 1989.
Inspire Record 282821 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29757

We report an experimental determination of the cross section for e + e − → hadrons from a scan around the Z 0 pole. On the basis of 4350 hadronic events collected over seven energy points between 89.26 GeV and 93.26 GeV we obtain a mass of m z =91.01±0.05±0.05 GeV, and a total decay width of Γ z =2.60±0.13 GeV. In the context of the standard model t these results imply 3.1 ± 0.4 neutrino generations.

Determination of the Number of Light Neutrino Species

The ALEPH collaboration Decamp, D. ; Deschizeaux, B. ; Lees, J.P. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 231 (1989) 519-529, 1989.
Inspire Record 282904 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29758

The cross-section for e + e − → hadrons in the vicinity of the Z boson peak has been measured with the ALEPH detector at the CERN Large Electron Positron collider, LEP. Measurements of the Z mass, M z = (91.174±0.070) GeV, the Z width Γ z =(2.68±0.15) GeV, and of the peak hadronic cross-section, σ had peak =(29.3±1.2) nb, are presented. With the constraints of the standard electroweak model, the number of light neutrino species is found to be N v =3.27±0.30. this results rules out of the possibility of a fourth type of light neutrino at 98% CL.

Observation of New Structure in the e+ e- Annihilation Cross-Section Above B anti-B Threshold

The CLEO collaboration Besson, D. ; Green, J. ; Namjoshi, R. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 54 (1985) 381, 1985.
Inspire Record 205667 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20359

Measurements of the e+e− cross section above BB¯ threshold are reported. Structures are observed which could be the ϒ(5S) and ϒ(6S) resonances. The masses and widths are given and compared with various potential-model predictions. Average charged multiplicities and inclusive lepton yields are also presented.

The Total Cross-section for Electron - Positron Annihilation Into Hadron Final States in the $\Upsilon$ Energy Region

The CLEO collaboration Giles, R. ; Hassard, J. ; Hempstead, M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 29 (1984) 1285, 1984.
Inspire Record 193577 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23768

We report measurements made with the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR) of the total cross section for e+e−→hadrons at the ϒ(1S), ϒ(2S), and ϒ(3S), and in the nearby nonresonant continuum. We find R=3.77±0.06 (statistical) ± 0.24 (systematic) for the ratio of the nonresonant hadronic cross section to the cross section for muon-pair production at a center-of-mass total energy W=10.4 GeV. For the leptonic decay widths Γee of the ϒ(1S), ϒ(2S), and ϒ(3S) we obtain 1.30±0.05±0.08, 0.52±0.03±0.04, and 0.42±0.04±0.03 keV, respectively.

A Measurement of the Branching Fraction of the Decay $\Upsilon$ (1s) $\to \tau^+ \tau^-$

The CLEO collaboration Giles, R. ; Hassard, J. ; Hempstead, M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 50 (1983) 877, 1983.
Inspire Record 188803 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20525

The branching fraction for the decay of the ϒ(1S) into τ paris has been measured to be (3.4±0.4±0.4)%. This result agrees with the previously measured branching ratio of the decay into muon pairs.

Charged Particle Multiplicities in $B$ Meson Decay

The CLEO collaboration Alam, M.S. ; Csorna, S.E. ; Fridman, A. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 49 (1982) 357, 1982.
Inspire Record 178492 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20573

The charged multiplicity has been measured at the ϒ(4S) and a value of 5.75±0.1±0.2 has been obtained for the mean charged multiplicity in B-meson decay. Combining this result with the measurement of prompt leptons from B decay, the values 4.1±0.35±0.2 and 6.3±0.2±0.2 are found for the semileptonic and nonleptonic charged multiplicities, respectively. If b→c dominance is assumed for the weak decay of the B meson, then the semileptonic multiplicity is consistent with the recoil mass determined from the lepton momentum spectrum.

Observation of a Fourth Upsilon State in e+ e- Annihilations

The CLEO collaboration Andrews, D. ; Berkelman, Karl ; Cabenda, R. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 45 (1980) 219, 1980.
Inspire Record 153182 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20674

A fourth state in the upsilon energy region has been seen in e+e− collisions at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. A resonance is observed with a mass 1112±5 MeV above the lowest upsilon state. The 9.6-MeV rms width is greater than the 4.6-MeV energy resolution of the e+e− beams. The observed characteristics of the new state make it a likely candidate for the 4S3 state of the bb¯ system, lying above the threshold for the production of B mesons.
